Selling a bunch of parts from my 2006 FJR. The bike was wrecked and I have finally given up that I am ever going to redo it. I am listing the part, asking price, weight, and dimensions of the box that it is packed in so that you can estimate shipping. All of the measurements are in inches. -...

Selling my 2006 with 40k miles. It was wrecked in 2010, I think it is safe to say that I am not going to put it back together. The bad: Rear subframe is bent Front forks bent Front cowling is rashed. I bought some replacement cowling off from Ebay, but it is not in the perfect condition it...

Once or twice a year I get myself into a situation that requires a tap or die. There is a common theme to these: 1) It always happens late at night when all of the stores are closed. 2) It always happens with a bolt I don't have the tap/die for. Given the small collection I have so far this is...

Texas man crashes his Bugatti Veyron while talking on his cell phone. While funny in one way, it really makes me sad.

950 tries, really?

I'm in the process of buying a triple clamp from Don in Canada. He pointed out that while ordering his Heli clamp he had to get the Canadian/Euro spec version - they do have a different ignition system than the US version. Did a quick search of online parts fiches from the US and Canada and...

Damaged mine in a crash. Any of you Heli owners want to get rid of your stocker?

After my get off a month ago I just got my FJR back (bought it back from Progressive for $900). Parked it in the garage and the handlebar when turned to the left is almost touching the tank, misses by maybe 1/4". The other side seems to be fine from what I remember. So, where is the steering...

You know what to do

Typing with one hand at the moment, so will keep it brief: left hander at 60mph +- 10mph, generous dose of throttle, flat track imitation, almost recovered it, didn't. Sliding, rolling, pain. Think I must have high sided as the bike skidded on it's right. I remember thinking "Holy shit I've...

Here is a link to the custom map I had made for my bike. As the title says I did the Cdog airbox mod, put on the Holeshot header, slipons, DB killers, and no Barbarian mod. You can find the map at the bottom of the page. I am not going to make any claims on performance gains. Maybe it's faster...

Probably not new information, but as an alternative to grinding down a broken bolt and center punching I use a dremel with a small engraving cutter bit: numbers 105 and 106. These bits have a round head and do not walk on uneven surfaces. The small bits can be used to make a whole large...

In the last year Road Runner has changed the way they host personal web pages and IMO they screwed it up. So I am looking for a web hosting company with two basic needs: 1) I can design my page offline (using a WYSIWYG html editor) and upload using ftp. 2) No banners/advertising in my page to...

Some folks like to wear them under mesh pants, or leathers for that matter: Holabird Sports.

Needs a side burner :lol: Did you notice the grill knobs in the second pic?

I'm in the process of mounting my holeshot header when I noticed that the ride side exhaust hanger has been ground. I can't get a good pic of it, but you can see the area circled in red: The hanger also looks like it has been a little bit. :blink: I can't figure out how this happened, the...

After using the HB changer for a year I decided to make some improvements. The first thing I did was remove that ridiculous post that is supposed to hold the motorcycle attachment from rotating on the base. Then I drilled a hole and bolted the MC attachment to the base (you can see the bolt...

Aol link. Can't imagine what the parents went through, medical science continues to amaze. :clapping:

There was some talk about being the dumb*** of the week on the forum. Well we are all just pretenders, it's a big world out there: stupid!

Pilfered this link from ST.N, looks like good reading: motorcycle dynamics.
